Spirituality of the Thyroid, a Challenging Issue
The thyroid is a small endocrine gland found at the base of the neck. The spirituality of the thyroid, a challenging issue, is evident because it’s an endocrine gland. The thyroid functions as the “gas pedal” of our bodies, facilitating energy and strength.
More women than men suffer with thyroid issues. They’re difficult to diagnose. The tests are not accurate enough to properly find a mildly troubled thyroid. For some, an untreated thyroid issue is very difficult to live with.
Menopausal women ask spiritual questions as their lives move into a new phase. The spirituality of the thyroid, a challenging issue is “front and center” here.
An underactive thyroid causes depression, weight gain, low energy, hair loss, dry skin, mental dullness, and sleep disorders.
People suffering with thyroid issues seek balance, courage, energy, mental alertness, vitality.
Sometimes an under active thyroid takes what seems like forever to diagnose. If you have thyroid issues and cannot find a solution, don’t give up. A persistent professional healthcare provider can get you to the foundation of the spirituality of the thyroid issue.
You can also try meditation to help cope with the issues of the spirituality of the thyroid. The following short meditation may help you. It’s seeks the wisdom of Mother Mary. She helped me tremendously in my journey for a solution to my thyroid problems.
Find a quiet place where you are safe and will not be disturbed.
Sit quietly and allow Mary, Queen of Angels, to come to you. When you feel her presence, open your eyes, ears, and heart. Her teachings offer compassion, courage, and vitality.
At first, you may feel nothing. However, after a few sessions, you will feel Mary’s presence in some way. She will answer your questions around universal truths.
It’s not necessary to be a Catholic to receive Mary’s teachings. It’s not even necessary to be a Christian. Nor is it necessary to believe in God. Mary’s compassion is open to all.
Mary, Queen of Angels, is an icon of wholeness. We can all seek Mary’s truths when the challenges of the spirituality of the thyroid seem to be overwhelming.
Sit with Mary for short periods several times a week as you seek her wisdom and insight.

The Spirituality of Blood
Blood is very exciting stuff.
For one thing, we can’t live without it. If we’re in an accident, and lose too much blood, we will die.
Blood tells the whole story. Often, when we visit the physician, a blood test is ordered. The story is here: our past, our present, our future.
In the womb, we shared our mother’s blood, who shared her mother’s blood, who shared her mother’s blood, and on and on and on to the beginning of time.
That being said, each person’s blood is unique. Like fingerprints, no 2 blood profiles are the same. And, blood changes with life events, nutrition, age. Because of this, there are many issues with blood:
high or low pressure,
circulation,
arteriosclerosis
thrombosis,
stroke
hemorrhage,
varicose vein,
anemia.
If you find yourself dealing with one of the above diseases, you are dealing with a spiritual disease. That doesn’t mean you forget the professional medical practitioner. It does mean that you do what that practitioner tells you to do and you deal with the spirituality issues in other ways.
When I think of the spirituality of blood, questions come to mind:
Have you recently found or lost a loved one?
Are you depressed?
Where are the conflicts in your life?
Are you nourishing yourself sufficiently?
Are you under a lot of pressure?
Are you angry?
Is someone or something threatening you?
Are you rigid with yourself and others?
Do you need to become gentler with yourself and others?
Are you afraid?
Are your life patterns stuck?
Does your lifestyle go against your beliefs?
Is too much going on in your life?
Are there too many people in your life?
What, if anything, is draining your energy?
Now might be a good time to try to deal with these questions one-by-one.
In order to develop the spirituality of your blood, proper diet is extremely important. Don’t just go to the grocery or the pharmacy and buy vitamins and minerals haphazardly. Find a nutritional consultant and get what you need.
No one diet fits all. Find the diet best for you…makes you feel better, helps maintain your weight, results in better blood test results. Your goal is to live a life bringing strength, vitality, purity to your blood.
Guided meditations can be instrumental for spiritual healing.
If you are a Reiki practitioner, give yourself sessions in which you offer an intent to heal and regenerate your blood to its optimum state. If you are not a Reiki practitioner, now is a good time to find one. This might even be a good time to learn Reiki therapy for yourself.
As your blood begins to experience this optimum state, you’ll invite joy, free expression, creativity, balance in your life.
Reflexology for the Spirit sessions are appropriate here. Homeostasis is necessary for the blood and for life in general. Reiki and reflexology work hand-in-hand here to help achieve the spiritual health our bodies need….no, crave.

ESSENTIAL OILS:
bergamot, cedarwood, clary sage, frankincense, geranium, juniper, lavender, lemon, marjoram, myrrh, orange, Roman chamomile, rose, sandalwood, ylang ylang
IMPROVEMENTS TO BE EXPECTED:
The chakras will balance, offering the body, mind, and spirit an opportunity to heal.
When the Spiritual/ Emotional system is engaged, it becomes a driving force in the healing of your client partner.
When the Spiritual/Emotional system needs healing, your client partner moves forward to resolve issues not previously resolvable. These breakthroughs can be important.

Reflexology Blog – Spiritual/Emotional System

THIS SYSTEM IS COMPOSED OF THE MIND, HEART, EYES, SOUL, CHAKRAS, AND ENERGETIC LAYERS SURROUNDING THE PHYSICAL BODY, AND THE ENTIRE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
As the journey goes, recognizing one’s spirituality varies from person to person. The differences aren’t important. What’s important is we understand the value of our spiritual well being relative to the overall health of the whole body.
Try to understand and respect the spiritual differences in each client partner. Spiritually, everyone is different with no wrongs or rights. Make every effort to support the client’s spiritual beliefs to help the client achieve good spiritual health.
THE QUESTION ARISES: WHAT IS THAT?
We can’t address the question without understanding the cultural, religious, and ethnic differences in our client partners. These should always be respected and acknowledged when appropriate.
With a client partner from a different culture, please try to learn more about cultural behaviors and communication styles within that culture.
GOOD SPIRITUAL HEALTH INCLUDES A CONNECTEDNESS WITH ONE’S INNER SELF AND WITH OTHERS. It can include a life with meaning and purpose. It can include faith, hope, peacefulness, love, forgiveness, and worship.
For many, the most elusive word is forgiveness. Many health care providers offer forgiveness prayers for their clients. Some healers feel healing is impossible without forgiveness. Your job is to assist your client partner to achieve and maintain spiritual balance and health.
Reflexing the nervous system can be a very spiritual experience for your client partner. For many, it facilitates a communication flow between the brain and the divine.
RECOGNIZE WHEN A CLIENT IS WORKING THROUGH LOSS AND GRIEF. Your sessions can assist and support the client in this journey.
The endocrine system is the foundation of the Spiritual/Emotional System. This is the primary system that Reflexology for the Spirit addresses.
The Endocrine system and the chakras are very closely aligned and influence one another.
Balanced chakras are a necessary component of good spiritual and emotional health. That’s what Reiki therapy does best. Have you learned Reiki therapy yet? It’s easy to learn. It’s fast, incorporated easily into a Reflexology for the Spirit session and brings homeostasis. As your client reaches and maintains homeostasis, the spirit becomes healthy, too. Once the chakras are balanced and the spirit begins to achieve good health it will become the driving force in the journey to homeostasis. You can assist your client partner on this journey without Reiki therapy but it’s easier with it.
The question arises: What is Reiki therapy? At its lowest common denominator, Reiki therapy is the laying on of hands. The practitioner calls in the Reiki energy (universal life force) and offers a light touch to a clothed body as healing is offered.
